This semi-sequel to Forgetting Sarah Marshall was released on Blu-ray and DVD with a longer cut, like most comedies produced by Judd Apatow.

Director Nicholas Stroller confirmed with This or That Edition which edition he prefers:

@thisthatedition I always prefer theatrical. The unrated is just to see extra jokes and gags. I didn’t even do an unrated for Neighbors

The classic tale of the heroic outlaw Robin Hood was revisited by Kevin Reynolds in 1991 with Kevin Costner in Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves. It was only second to Terminator 2: Judgment Day as the highest grossing film that year. Mostly due to the excellent song Everything I Do, I Do It for You with Bryan Adams.

Den of Geek: “Going back to Robin Hood, we got the extended cut on DVD a couple of years ago, which was received exceptionally well. I’m wondering if you feel in any way – I’m not sure if ‘vindicated’ is the right word, or just ‘pleased’ – that you got a different version of it out there?”

Kevin Reynolds: “Well, yes and no – what you really wish is that the original version had been that, the original release had been your version. But yeah, to some extent I am happy that people saw more of what I intended.”

Gladiator conquered the Academy Awards in 2001 and took home 5 Oscars including Best Picture and Best Actor (Russell Crowe). The Blu-ray edition of the film includes two versions of the movie and in an intro on the extended edition director Ridley Scott states that the theatrical edition is his director’s cut.

“What you are about to see, if you press play, is the extended version of Gladiator. This is not the director’s cut. The director’s cut is the length that went out in theaters. This has a lot of scenes in it that were removed during the editing process and might be worth seeing.”
